BER vs CAY Dream11 : Cayman Islands head out in pursuit of an elusive win as they and Bermuda traverse the closing encounter of the league today.
Advertisement
For Cayman Islands this has been an extremely disappointing edition of the ICC T20 World Cup Americas’ Region Final. While the side were never expected to pull off a massive surprise and seal a spot in the top 2, the side have failed to even string together respectable performances, falling to embarrassing defeats across the course of the league.
While the side can’t be massively blamed for the way they have been put down by their opponents with this being the first time ever that they are playing an international ICC tournament, Cayman Islands will be dejected for not showcasing the world what they are capable of. A side on the up rise from the region, Cayman Island’s ascendancy in the fraternity has been stemmed with some lopsided showings.
The only side to yet record a win in this league, the side will be looking to make things jittery for already qualified Bermuda when the two sides square off in the culminating encounter of the series. Although it’s an inconsequential encounter for both these sides with the final result not changing things in the larger scheme of things, either will be heading out with aspirations of a win as they look to remind the cricketing arena of what they are truly capable of.
Pitch Conditions And Toss
With us getting rain over here prior to the day’s opening encounter and a heavy cloud cover looming over the surface, this is going to be a treacherous batting surface for the batsmen. The ball will stop before coming onto the bat with the spinners getting the ball to grip and massively turn, leaving batsmen flummoxed.
The side winning the toss will be looking to bat first as they look to pile runs on the scoreboard.

With 85 runs in 4 encounters, Okera Bascome from Bermuda is our pick in the wicket-keeping slot. He’s registered some good performances in the league and with Cayman Islands bound to tumble in this one, losing wickets at will, he’ll be involved heavily behind the gloves as well.
